INTERNET

The Internet is poised to transform our society fundamentally. Originally it was a communication network within the US military establishment. Till 1980s it was used mainly by academics and government technologists. Now it has become a worldwide network and it is widely used for variety of purposes. In this “information superhighway” people can send e-mail, monitor bank accounts, shop for practically everything from books to automobiles and search the World Wide Web for information. It is clear to everyone that the Internet is going to reshape our society and alter our lifestyles.
